[jira] [Created] (UIMA-5416) Ruta: strange behavior of # matching

Hugues de Mazancourt created UIMA-5416:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: Ruta: strange behavior of # matching
                 Key: UIMA-5416
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-5416
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Ruta
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0ruta
         Environment: MacOS X and Linux
            Reporter: Hugues de Mazancourt


The attached ruleset Loop.ruta has a strange behavior on the attached text file : the last rule matches 1009 times and creates 1008 annotations where only two are expected. What is very strange is the ability for # to "cross" over the right boundary and match the two lines. 
This is (at least) counterintuitive as # is supposed to behave like a non-greedy catch-all.
